What is self storage?
Self storage is the rental of a small, secure unit where individuals or businesses can store goods. Units come in sizes from a small closet (a few square metres) up to a 40ft container (28 square metres). Most are on managed sites with gates, CCTV, and 24/7 access. Renters provide their own padlock or use a site-issued one.

Self storage became popular because people increasingly needed flexible space for temporary life events. House moves, renovations and business growth often create short-term storage needs that permanent buildings cannot solve efficiently. Related questions
